LIFE CYCLES Ms. Chandler's 3rd grade classes have been studying different life cycles. 2 weeks ago, they found a beautiful caterpillar, and wondered if they might be able to watch it make a cocoon or chrysalis, and turn into a butterfly. Sure enough, a couple of days after finding the caterpillar, they had a chrysalis! Two weeks passed with the students anxiously awaiting what would happen and on Friday when they came to school, they found a beautiful butterfly in the jar. The students took him out, let him dry his wings, and then turned him loose on the playground. What a fun experience! #LHWolfNation

VERB BINGO 3rd graders in Ms. Grisham's literacy classes played irregular verb BINGO last week. The students loved the chance to play a game while learning at the same time! #LHWolfNation
